Interindividual variability in appetitive sensations and relationships between appetitive sensations and energy intake
BackgroundAppetitive sensations (AS) are signals that guide eating behaviors. Marked short-term inter-individual variability in AS has been reported...

Prospective relations between maternal emotional eating, feeding to soothe, and infant appetitive behaviors
BackgroundInfant obesogenic appetitive behaviors are associated with greater infant weight and child obesity, yet little is known about maternal...

Sex differences in appetitive and reactive aggression
Aggression is an evolutionarily conserved, adaptive component of social behavior. Studies in male mice illustrate that aggression is influenced by...
